✦ Synopsis

Results of minimum basis SCGF calculations on

Hz0 are reported for seven different HOH angles from 90 to 120~. Optimum hybridization is neariy constant over the range of bond angles considered, thus suggesting the existence of "bent bon&m for all but the equilibrium bond angle, where bond and hybrid angles coincide. * For details of definition and notation see ref. 121.
